Look into intuitive eating. Love yourself
Protein shakes. Replace 1 meal a day. And eat small healthy frequent meals throughout the day. Cut out junk food and drinks…Drink tons of water
I would recommend a therapist, but what I have started doing is not really dieting just changing a small thing until it becomes a habit. Right now I have started doing a smoothie for breakfast next will focus on adding more veggies for snack or dinner. If I try to do big changes it does not work amd I revert back to old habits but baby steps are what is helping me…
Binge eating is actually a eating disorder. I would recommend talking to a therapist who specializes in this.
Portion control is all it is.
I use to be 350lbs and just bought my first bikini top today… The problem to start with are diets!!! Do you know what the first 3 letters in the word diet are?.. DIE!! Do not diet. What you need to do is make small lifestyle changes. I quit all soda and switched to just water. I switched to decaf coffee. I stopped eating after 8pm and I eat six smaller meals a day to help reboot my metabolism. I started off with walking an hour everyday and now I do yoga and dance. But it all comes down to will power. I have a food addiction and I had to also seek therapy. One of my mind tricks is to always leave some food on my plate at every meal… It eventually tricks the brain into thinking you are full. Anytime I want to eat, I go for a walk or work on a project. It’s like anything else you need to change your lifestyle in small increments… And you need to work at it every minute of everyday until it becomes habit.

My GP just started me on Rybelsus and it has completely stopped my cravings for sugar and carbs. It is a type 2 diabetes drug that drs are using to help weight loss. I have lost 13lbs so far but the better benefit is my appetite has gone way down.

Whilst a lot of the advice is good advice, I suggest seeing a doctor for a mental health plan 
I binge eat (anxiety/self sabotage related) and it is a disorder that needs treatment at the root

Speak to a health professional. A GP can provide some advice and guidance or refer you to someone with experience with binge eating disorders who can assist.
Portion control, calorie control & exercise. Lots n lots n lots of exercise. Little to no sugars. Tons of vegetables. Cut out fried foods. Pizza. Junk food. Its a real world rocking lifestyle change.
Juicing can be a good filler. Always drink a whole cup of water before eating. Snack on as many fruits and vegetables as you want. Eat one ingredient foods (chicken,
apple, carrot, ect) no refined sugar or processed foods. Your fruit and vegetables intake should be as close to 50/50 as you can get in your juices or on your plate.
Low carb lifestyle. It’s hard (and a lil expensive), but it works.
Don’t binge eat and don’t diet find a balance, give yourself designated cheat days
Join a support group that will help you through those difficult times.
There is a condition called binge eating disorder. Talk to your Dr about it.

Eat what you crave. Just in moderation.
Noom, it’s a weight loss app, I couldn’t lose weight for years and would overeat and not eat good foods. I’m about a month into Noom and I’ve lost 6kgs
Well…let’s just say my answer isn’t for everyone.
Move more, eat less.
It’s the only long lasting way I found after trying every diet around. Coming to terms with the fact that I was indeed the problem, wasn’t easy. It was always me blaming my thyroid or some other bs excuse…truth is: it takes a lot of calories to maintain a large body- not to gain or loose weight, but just to stay where you are. I was over 300lbs which means I was ingesting a minimum 5500 calories a day to just stay there. When simple math and some harsh self facing took over, my pounds dropped like a brick. I halfed my meals (use a small plate to make your portion look big…) and started walking 30-60 minutes a day- lost almost 100lbs in 1 year that way. Just walking and eating less.
Other tips
When reaching for food/snacks - ask, am I really hungry? Drink a water then if you still need to, eat.
Stop with sugar drinks and move to water. Liquid calories sneak up on your body in a big way
Be nice to yourself. Some days will be easier than others.

Dont ‘diet’ as such, its on/off. Just cut down, halve anything you would normally eat. Dont count calories, dont eat special diet food or diet regimes. Just eat how you normally do, but halve it.
Dont give yourself any deadlines, no ‘I want to loose 3 stone in 3 months’ kind of goals.
Dont weigh each week, if you can wait 2 or even 4 weeks between weigh-ins. Try and forget about losing weight.
It will be slow, but it wont be hard and this might take the pressure off you. Dont even tell anyone this is what you’re doing, just cut down by half and do some regular excercise like walking or swimming, (forget the gym, that’s dieting unless you go anyway and enjoy it).
Forget about good/bad, on/binge cycles, it becomes obsessive. Just live a natural life.
Pick up a hobby that requires you to put physical effort into
Biking, jogging, working out, a sport, dance classes, swimming, etc
Don’t eat white foods, rice, pasta, bread and potatoes.

I went to a weight loss clinic and they gave me phetermine, completely rid me of my need to binge
Try noom! It teaches you how to eat, and helps work through the psychology of eating. I highly recommend it!
Find an activity you love so that exercise doesn’t feel like work. Diets don’t work for everyone, I suggest a nice daily workout routine
I have a slight issue with this as well and I found that keeping junk food out of my house has helped a lot. I just don’t buy it, and if I do, it’s not a whole box it’s a single serving.
Drink water, exercise, and DONT EAT AFTER 5:00 AT NIGHT. When you eat after 5 it dont digest properly and you dont do anything to work it off, you just lay down for bed. They say to eat your dinner for breakfast, so you have the whole day to work it off. Then for dinner eat a small breakfast, like a bowl of cereal, or maybe some eggs and toast ect.
I joined weight watchers. Over the years, I have tried it all but nothing sticks. For some reason, tracking my points with them really keeps me on track. I’ve learned how to be more mindful about portions and what goes in my mouth. Mainly, I’ve cut out alcohol, sugary things and the kids snacks. I’ve lost about 18 healthy pounds in two months. I’ve never lost weight like this before and kept it off longer than a few weeks. It’s a mental thing. Of course I want to eat what the kids are eating (snacks, doughnuts, ice cream, chips…) but I’m also so tired of being devastated when I try to go clothes shopping. You’ll find something that works for you, just don’t give up. My hobby is running, but also crafting. A mental outlet helps too.
Calorie deficit I been on it for a month and my clothes are baggy on me now stay away from scales though they could go up for any reason xx
Binge eating is usually associated with mental health, so make sure to do things that make you happy and keep you motivated! For my first 50lbs lost I gifted myself with a tattoo, and for 5lb increments I would do something smaller like buy myself a clothing item or decor for my house. I know it sounds silly but it made me love myself a little more when I reached a goal and did something for myself.
By giving yourself grace! You are a human.

Don’t “diet”. That starts the restriction cycle, which makes you want to binge in the end. Start incorporating healthier foods into your diet without beating yourself up if you eat something “bad”.

Try by changing one habit per month, then keep going and start with another, and so on. Habits are hard to change and building new ones takes time. You may not notice significant changes right away but they will happen if you allow yourself time to develop a new healthy habits. Start by making sure your water consumption is adequate then month 2 try replacing carbs with veggies at dinner or by simply having haldd the normal serving of carbs. You make the changes that work for you.

I had dropped 20 lbs in 3 months by cutting out bread and sweets. Then Xmas came and I ate all the cookies. I put it back on. Now I’m back to little carbs with meals. I do the same thing so your not alone. I hate myself for it bc I hate repeating anything
Carbohydrates Addict’s Diet has helped with my cravings and I’m not hungry when I follow it. Some foods are restricted until the evening meal but nothing is off limits.
I am 33 and have had trouble with my weight my whole life.
Diets DO NOT WORK
If you like something but don’t let yourself have it… it just makes you want it more.
I have found something that works for me.
I let myself eat anything I want. Just small portions. And I don’t snack after 8pm.
And when I eat the second I feel “full” I stop eating.
I try to be as active as I can be.
So far this has helped me lose 45lbs and 11 inches in my waist.

I think therapy is a good place to start with an eating disorder.
Try to stop demonizing food!! There are no good and bad foods, no need for that mentality as long you find balance. When we over restrict ourselves on diets it will never ever be sustainable and you’ll feel like shit every time you “cheat” just eat the pizza or cookies every once in a while, it’s no big deal. The biggest thing is finding a healthy caloric deficit so you loose the pounds you want but exactly what you eat doesn’t need to be SO restricted. it’s all balance and finding what works for you, small lifestyle changes toward healthier choices 
don’t be so hard on yourself, diet culture is soul sucking, it’s based on a system to make us feel like shit about ourselves. Food is NOT the enemy. Calories are NOT the enemy. It’s all about finding healthier choices that fit our lifestyles.
Get your family or good friends involved. Ask them to help motivate you and keep you accountable. Exercise together with family walks and work up to hiking or climbing a rock wall. Take turns picking out healthy food choices for your meals. It’s much easier to do this alongside people that won’t let you slide and will celebrate your accomplishments.
Binge disorders could require medical support
Personally I ditched 100lbs between 2017-18 and have kept it off for the most part (gained a little during lockdown) through just cleaning up my diet and got a PT. Started out going twice a week and getting 10k steps in, then progressing to 5 days a week. I try to just eat while foods, swap out sugary drinks for water, sugar free dilute and diet mixers. Also keeping the water intake high and make sure u get plenty of sleep is key.
Do watch your stress as it can also impair progression.
Most importantly, be kind to yourself. Find an accountability buddy or someone u trust to chat to when you’re slipping.
Best of luck
Burn more calories than you consume. The End.
Your problem is that you’re trying to be healthy for your kids and you need to try to be healthy for you you need to actually want it for you and not for someone else
Intermittent Fasting; that’s what worked for me. Went from 253lbs last summer to 196.8lbs now
Therapy. A dietitian. & personal development books. The rest will follow. Good luck 
the key is moderation. when dieting, it’s okay to cheat on it. once a week to treat yourself for doing well. but it can’t be something that you do constantly, everyday. (when cheating on your diet, do it with something small. Like a candy bar or a small milk shake) another thing is excercise. you have to do something to help burn off calories. i recently got a bicycle to help me lose weight. start out slow. thirty minutes, once or twice a day. you want to be able to have time to do it. after that, and once your muscles are more used to the strain- try upping the time to an hour…ect. and good luck.
Stop doing diets and make a lifestyle change to eat healthier and remember it takes 21 days to learn new habits and 21 days to keep them. Also remember each day is a new day where you can start over
What ever you binge eat, just swap it with some healthier foods or snacks
Binge eating means it’s dangerous for you to try to go on a diet your diet is anything that passes your lips for the rest of your life so no more dieting it will backfire every time… Before you eat ask yourself what you want and eat that like thin people do and once you know that you’re not ever going on a diet there’s no reason to binge because you think you’ll do your diet Monday… Do I want something creamy crunchy spicy cheesy or chocolatey have the piece of cake and live your good life nobody who isn’t dieting needs to eat the whole cake and you’re probably not going to want to eat only that everyday try to learn to listen to your body and give up the idea of dieting… Eat as much protein as you can it builds muscle and burns fat regular food is 4 calories a gram and he’s burned immediately by your body…fats or 9 calories a gram and they’re stored simple survival of the species… Choose your favorite fats make sure that you really love them and eat them sparingly no more than two portions a day… that’s it… There are two ways to lose weight one is burn more calories another is to eat less calories…and not all calories are the same… learn what portions are so that you know what you’re eating… Carbs are a tennis ball protein a pack of cards or your palm… fats are a ping pong ball… Some fruits you can have a ton of the count as one fruit watermelon two and a half cups blueberries strawberries but half of a small banana is a fruit… Four tablespoons of pineapple juice is a fruit half a cup of juice try not to drink juice or water it down nobody would eat 40 oranges but you can drink them and that’s a lot of calories… Just educate yourself about nutrition and enjoy your life and eat everything you want to eat… Alcohol is metabolized like a fat in the body by the way… If you are binging like a bulimic then you need therapy no diet in the world can fix the underlying cause for binging.
wow…think about how you got it in the first place…!!!
Hope you figure it out…good luck!
I am 70 and crippled and it is essential that I lose weight pre-surgery. I started, without knowing it was a thing, to do intermittent fasting. difficult to do if you have to cook for people but great if you are by yourself. I have so far lost 53# and it has been pretty effortless. The trick is to eat exactly what you want and as much of it as you want during your eat period and then quit for the balance of the day. Not hard to do when your belly is full. I have found that my appetite is getting less and less as I go as long as I always remember to feed the beast (raging appetite). If you want chocolate cake, eat as much as you want and then quit. I highly recommend it. 
Following! I feel ya 
I have been struggling for a little while now. I have the Mirena and just not comfortable anymore 
Give it time to get out of your system. It’s horrible. Then look into macros 
Watch out for the incoming MLM comments promising fast weight loss. Basic things like cutting out soda, junk, fast food are the easy start. Creating a calorie deficit
Decrease intake & increase expenditure !!
honstley I Just cut out all junk food started to walk everywhere at least try go for a walk once a day and keeping on top of eating your 5 plus a day
Just cutting out carbs and fast food in general did wonders for me. I lost 34 lb in five months. And I’m not where I want to be but I’m getting there

Please watch out for MLMs on here. Mediterranean diet has worked wonders for me. I started the diet under my doctor’s instruction as well as increased my physical activity. It definitely helps to have a personal trainer or someone to help you make and keep your goals. Download MyFitnessPal to count your calories. Most of all, remember that beauty is not measured in clothing size. Reach for your goals, but don’t beat yourself up.
Working out, fasting, drink only water from 8pm until next day (breakfast)…babies sleep alone so you can do atleast 30 mins work out at home 
Fluid diet. Milatry diet.
Drink at least a gallon of water a day, control your eating portions, and try to do some exercises. Stay off the scale sweety! If you want to workout and have a personal trainer (even at home) I can recommend you my trainer. She gives you workouts you can do at home. All you need is some dumbbells, yoga mat and a chair. Please PM if you want more info. It’s hard to lose weight but I promise you, it’s so rewarding.
Low carb! Swear on it.
I’m doing vita diet so 2 shakes 1 meal and unlimited veg and fruit in between.
Portion control and exercise.
The depo shout can make a lot of women put loads of weight on!! Eat healthy and try and stay active
Just eat healthy and move your body how ever you want at least 30 min! The whole point is calorie deficit. You don’t need some super strict diet or trendy diet. Just burn more than you consume. That’s it. Good luck! You got this!

Use a smaller plate.
Eat more veggies with water in them to fill up… like cucumbers or celery.
I love celery with cream cheese, or cucumbers tossed in vinegar and a small bit of oil with s&p.

Keto to start walk 30mins everyday and then cut all diary, carbs. Then after about 4 months start weight workouts this is what has worked for me
My mother in law, aunt , and mom have all had great success with weight watchers. I plan to start soon after having my baby
The hormones can stay In your body for up to a year so it might be hard to lose weight even after you discontinued to use the shot. Try eating greens and maybe a keto diet they make tons of stuff like waffles and pancakes and even ice cream so your diet might not change so drastically and you can still enjoy the good things.
Water. I know it sounds funny but 1st 5 lbs of any diet can be gained back easily because its water weight. Do simple things like a short walk everyday, start with 10 sit ups and push ups between commercials. Doing simple things like switching 2 9+ grain whole wheat bread, cutting sugars such as cokes, candy, cakes, eat every 4 - 6 hours. Ur biggest meal should be breakfast and most carb filled the smallest meal should be dinner and least carb filled. Dont eat within an hour of going 2 bed and snacks should be healthy snacks. Drink water 15 minutes before eating any large meals. Limit starchy foods potatoes, noodles, rice. Sauces should be limited and use half or low fat dressings
Depo doesn’t cause weight gain. Only BC with estrogen does. All estrogen has been removed from it.
Portion control- whole grains- lean meats- lots of protein then veggies

Arbon is really amazing!
Drink more water and drop the sugar and wine or beer!!! No takeout at all during the week and instead of a diet try to limit yourself with the food, instead of eating this amount of food eat 3/4 of what you are eating and do that by decreasing portions and adding more vegetables into diet! Don’t limit yourself because it’s more difficult to not eat a certain food and when you have it that you can’t get enough!
This system worked for me. I lost around 40 pounds, starting 3 months after having my baby-girl. It took me about 6 months, but most of it was off by 4 months. And this is without exercise (only walks with my baby in the stroller a few times a week) and with eating candy about once a week and some form of take-away about every other week. I do breastfeed, though! So I burn a few extra calories there. I know it sounds too good to be true, but it’s a tool to manage portions and to make sure you eat varied and balanced - and enough! Nothing is off limits! No rules that say what you can and cannot eat - only advise on how to manage your portions. It changed my life and my relationship with food. Now I use the tools to keep the weight stable +- 5 pounds 
it doesn’t cost anything unless you decide to use a coach or the premium app. I never did. Everything you need, is free on their website.
Exercise and healthy eating cut out all the snacking and bad food
I’m on the depo… keto and exercise I’ve lost tons of weight
